Anthony Weiner has reverted to dad mode, but the Carlos Danger scandal continues to haunt him even in civilian life. While escorting his son Jordan to Union Square Park last week, Weiner came upon a swing another kid had peed on, and screamed at the child’s father, “Thanks for leaving this thing soaking wet.” While Weiner’s reaction doesn’t sound wildly unreasonable, the other dad got the last word. A witness tells the Post that the child’s father informed Weiner that he was about to clean it up, and snapped, “It’s funny you’re the one talking about other people’s self–control.”
